Land sale not so fantastic, 650 signatories say

Duncan Eddy and Ursula Lehr deliver a letter signed by 650 people to Kāinga Ora’s offices in Dunedin central.

The letter calls on the government housing provider to seriously rethink its approach on housing and stop selling off land — particularly bare land in Albertson Ave, Port Chalmers, which was initially planned to have more than 12 new state homes.

Colliers is undertaking the sale of land for Kāinga Ora and described it as a "fantastic opportunity".
